Best shawarma in the area. Lentil soup too. Try it now.

The guy taking order from me has really bad breath. He stood on the other side of a counter but it felt like a whole sewer explodes in every word he said. I think he has some digestion issue - needs to see the doctor. They wrapped the sandwich interlocking with the aluminum foil. When you remove the foil, the whole roll just undoes itself - very inconvenient as a handheld. There isn't flexible options for veggie, sauce choice or the staff just didn't offer me. What if people have allergic reactions? Food is salty and dry. The only thing positive is the large portion. I couldn't even finish 1/2 a sandwich wrap, or it was just too salty that I drank too much water and got full.

Amazing taste. The staff is super nice and courteous and we got freebies too. The lentil soup was delicious. The meat was very soft and full of taste. Highly recommend this place to everyone.

We had a fantastic dining experience at Ibn Alsham! The staff was courteous, friendly, and professional, always attentive to our needs, which made us feel so welcome. The food was absolutely delicious and arrived hot off the grill. The lentil soup was flavorful and comforting, the kofta kebab was soft and packed with flavor, and the chicken was perfectly seasoned and tender. Every bite was a treat! The establishment itself is spotless, creating a clean and inviting atmosphere that added to the overall experience. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Ibn Alsham to anyone looking for a delightful meal and excellent service.

Chicken Shwarma wrap was extremely tasty! Baklava the best I've had—seem liked it was freshly made, not overly sweet and very flavourful. Great service and they even gave some free lentil soup to try. Go support this business!
